Firas Alkhateeb is the artist. A 20-year old muslim history student at the University of Illinois. A Dennis Kucinich supporter.
He photoshopped the Time magazine cover in January. Then someone else took his joker-art and created the socialism poster.
Alkhateeb tells the LA Times:
Regardless, Alkhateeb does agree with the Obama "Hope" artist about "socialism" being the wrong caption for the Joker image. "It really doesn't make any sense to me at all," he said. "To accuse him of being a socialist is really ... immature. First of all, who said being a socialist is evil?"
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. We blame the public schools for this...
Be sure to visit our posts below. Yesterday's post with the joker video. Creeeepy. And our collection of poster spinoffs.
See Alkhateeb's flickr album. Some good photoshop work, plus plenty of pictures of mosques and the Kaaba in Saudi Arabia.
